To all whom it may comm:

Be .it known that I. D ivis citizen of the United States. and residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York. have invented certain and operation, and which may be used with equal facility at either side of the head,V and by iiicans of'wjhich the hair may be easily curled without the use of heat and with this and other objects in view the invention consists in a device of the class specified, con- *i structed as hereinafter described and claimed.

the parts in dittercit positions andv the method of changing said parts from one position to another; Fig..-i a view .similar to Figi 3 but showing the device in full lines and the method of its use; Fig. 5 aview similar to Fig. 1 but showing a modification with part of che construction broken away,

and; Fig. 6 an edge view of the device as. shown inAv Fig. 5 and showing the method of its use.

In the accoinpanyiiio' di'awing all the figures'are on an enlarged scale, and in the practice of `my invention I' provide a huir curling device comprising two tiexible and elastic strips a and b, one of said strips, the strip a s shown in the drawing. being preferably wider than the other. The lstrip a. is

forked at one end as shown at a2 and' the opposite end portion thereof is provided with a holeor aperture a3' through which the strip b is passed and said strip b' is proV vided 'at each end with a cross head b2 which `will-not pass through'said'hole or aperture.

Iii the` use of this device one end b2 of the lstrip bis detached from the forked end a2 of the strip u., this operation being per- .i

formed by bending said strip a.; and the 'hair c is then wound oii said strip a, after which therfree end of the strip bis again connected with the-forked end a'` of thestrip a a's shown in said figure.

-Iii Fig. 3 of the drawing the strip b is shown in full lines Von one side of the strip a and in dotted lines on the other, andthe method of changing said strip Z) fromone side to the other of the strip c is also' indieef cated in'dotted lines in said-figure. In this i foperation one end of the strip b is detached -from the forked end of the strip i and said strip is passed through the hole oi aperture a3 in the other end Vof said strip a and turned in said hole'or 'aperture as clearly indicated in dotted-lines in said figure, and the free end thereof connected with the forked-end,

of the strip a. In practice-the hair'is pref-l erably wound on the strip a, and by means of the construction shown. 1n Fig. 3 the use of the device at either side of the head is facilitated as will be readily understood.

In Figs. 5 and 6 I have shown a niodiiiciition in which the side portions a4, formed bythe hole or aperture a in one end of the 4strip a, are provided with inwardly directed. proJections a between which is pivoted a keeper c, through which the strip b is passed and through which the strip b is free t-o slide and the keeper a. is free to turn on.

a, as will be readi y understood, and the i forked end of the' strip a may be. detached4 from the corresponding end of the strip b and reconnected therewith`in the manner hereinbefore described With reference to th'e construction shown in Figs. l Ato 4 inclusive,-

and this enables the hair to be wound on the I It will be understood that Athe hole or 1 aperture a3, in oneend of the strip u. 'as I i shownin Fi s. 1 to 4 inclusive forms Va keeper throng which the strip b is ree to slide, and this is also true of the keeper a shown in Figs. 5 and 6, .the onlydiiferen 110 being that the keeper a6 is pivoted in the corresponding end of the strip a and is free to turn therein.

Having fully described my invention,

i what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

l. A hair curling device of the class described composed of two (parte of predetermined lengths, one of sai parts being slidabl and permanently connected with one I Aen of the other part and being adapted to scribed, composed of two flexible and elastic A strips, one of which is forked. at one end and provided with a pivoted keeper at the other end throu h which the other strip is free to slide, sai other strip being provided at both ends with a cross head.

3. A .hair curling device of the class described, composed of two iexible and elastic strips, one of which is provided at bothends with a `cross head and slidably connected with one end of the other, said other strip Vbeing provided at its free end with a fork.

Intestiniony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have slgned my lname in presence of the subscribing witnesses this 30th day of March 1910.
